That was NOT a fun 24 hours. Kiddo had his MCH nurse appointment, and his growth is not what we want it to be so that’s triggered a medical review. Went to a parents group. They were all talking about their nap schedule and how they get their kiddo down. And we’re like “We cant get him to sleep”. Then he had a fever thanks to his vaccinations. Super common apparently, but no one told us that.
So he didnt go down till 1am.
Fuck me.
Our first wouldn’t sleep either (about 20 minutes at a time, until about 16 months from memory). It’s so tough, and we ended up stopping going to the parents group because they were all about how much progress they were making with their sleep schedules…after we had just explained again how much trouble we were having…
It’s really hard, but it will get better. Someone once told me to think back a month and see what had changed, improved, etc… Even if it was a tiny thing. Helped a bit.
